The Happiness Lab

Body & Soul

Learning to develop our spirituality and look after the soul isn’t as easy as some other skills. This is because our purpose and meaning in life take time to develop and can change throughout our lives.

It can be difficult to define exactly what the soul is, but in broad terms it relates to the inner aspects of who we are—that we are more than just flesh and bone. It could be described as the real, unique us. It’s the place from within where our lives are lived out according to our beliefs, values, talents and strengths.

Happiness experiments to try

Sacred place
It is good to have a place you can go to to find peace and quiet. A sacred place where it is easier to realise that you are not alone on this planet, that there is a hand that guides your life, and that there is hope for tomorrow. Take a few moments this week to visit that place.
